Actually, as an alternative, you can ride a moped; take public or private transportation. Not everyone gets a car, as a present, for their 16th birthday. I'm not an expert, but I don't think that driving a truck, motorcycle or automobile has ever been a right.Now we must accept that we do not have the right to travel unless we walk or ride a horse? How exactly would that work? I got me a horse and I am ready to travel, can I ride my horse on the streets, highways and interstates or across peoples property because now I need to take a more direct route?
Why would one need a license to collect those taxes that pay for those roads. They buy the car, pay taxes on said car, pay the yearly wheel tax and pay road taxes every time they fill up that car
Tell me when driving a car became a privilege and ceased being a right.

Mopeds are not practical for long distances or safe in inclement weather. Public and private transportation are not available or affordable in most locations of the country.
Once again, the government has a monopoly on personal transportation and no other types can compete against them. Creating a monopoly on a necessity and then denying access to it is not an acceptable government practice.
FIFYYOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO DRIVE DRUNK

A single mother, with 3 kids, needs to buy groceries. Its -40 degrees outside. The roads are covered with snow and ice. The store is 20 miles away.
Sorry lady, using 20th century technology is a privilege. You have no right to drive a vehicle with enough seats for your family, with heat, and 4 wheel drive.
Haven't you read your social contract? Ride a scooter, or maybe a skateboard. Don't act like you have no options.
Stop being such an INGOtarian. The threat of having to hike 20 miles to the store in -40 degrees through snow and ice with your three kids to purchase food does not constitute duress.
Tell that single mom to strap on her ice skates and baby bjorn and get busy.
She can just leave the kids at home and she should have went to the store 5 days before the storm anyways, even if she didnt have the money yet.

As automobile-related fatalities soared in North America, public outcry provoked legislators to begin studying the French and German statutes as models.[5] On August 1, 1910, North America's first licensing law for motor vehicles went into effect in the U.S. state of New York, though it initially applied only to professional chauffeurs.[6] In July 1913, the state of New Jersey became the first to require all drivers to pass a mandatory examination before receiving a license.[7]

Call a taxi.
Failure to plan on her part may result in hardship.
